Put Your Hand in the Hand


Rise Up Singing chapter: Gospel

D - A - / - - D - / D D7 G E / DBm EA DG D (as far as I can remember...)
"Put your hand in the hand of the man who stilled the waters
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea..."

Which reminds me, one of my very own brothers wrote a song with lyrics cribbed from the Bible that goes "He maketh the storm calm so that the waves thereof are still
He maketh the storm calm so that the waves thereof are still
He maketh the storm calm so that the waves thereof are still
He maketh the storm calm so that the waves thereof are stillllllllll"

It's quite repetitive, as you can see, but I think it's really good too. Worth a listen. I'll see if I can find a link to a performance of it online. I think there's one somewhere.

  1. Hi Matthew,
    I just wanted to thank you for doing this. I love my Rise up Singing book but there were so many songs that I didn't know. I found your site a couple of weeks ago and have been learning new songs ever since. Keep on going and don't worry if you get behind. I'm just so excited that I might be able to play all the songs in the book eventually.
